Summary: Excellent light!
Comment: This light from Planet Bike is one of the greatest bicycle products on the market today. Ask anyone who uses them, they are super bright, durable, and good on batteries. The battery size is also a commonly used AAA, not a watch battery or odd size.
Should you have any problems, I've heard customer service at Planet Bike is excellent. I would give this item an A+

Summary: Great light
Comment: This light was even brighter than I had expected. It is very visible from far away. It has a clip for wearing, but I found the removable mounting clips to be even easier and more convenient to use. This light is fantastic for being seen!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Clear case but red LEDs
Comment: This sorta makes no sense. The item description clearly states the LED is red and it/they are, although states 2 and there are 3. The clear case begs to be used as a headlight but the LEDs flash red rather than white. This product could be greatly improved with white LEDs.

Summary: Bright, attention grabbing, works! Attachment to bike OK.
Comment: The light itself is great! Approximately 2x1x1", sturdy, relatively water resistant, and doesn't seem to be prone to damage. The 'button' is well designed covered by the plastic case (press lightly on the case, which will then press the hidden button). As for the light, works very well, grabs attention during day and night! Focused to point in a straight cone, but has light to the sides and top/bottom (overall visible from side and back; best for cars coming from behind). Blink pattern is 'blink blink blink BLINK BLINK' (very fast blinks, from the 2 small LED's and then twice from the larger LED). Also has steady ON mode.
Only bad thing is the attachment mechanism. It's plasticky, average construction (doesn't seem like it will break though), not very sleek, and might allow the light to accidentally tilt if not tightened completely. There are three given ways to attach: 1 use the clip (which is non removable, but replaceable if broken), bad thing is that the clip will allow it to point down, causing the bright spot to point away from cars. 2 use the seat post clamp (comes with thick and thin rubber liners to increase grip on the seat post), works good UNLESS you have a seat bag, which may get in the way. 3 Attach to seat stay (the slanting bar connecting the rear wheel to seat). This lowers the position of the light, which *might* block visibility. Other than that, I like this position.

Summary: You want to be noticed? This is it!
Comment: Other reviewers have raved about this tail light and I have to agree. It is very bright and easily seen by cars approaching you from behind. Where it shine best (no pun intended) is during the dawn or dusk hours. I find riding bicycle during that time the scariest because you think you can be seen but honestly there has been times where I have been scared out of my wits because cars didn't see you even though there was still some sun light left. Having this very bright blinking tail light will definitely get driver's attention and minimize chance of getting into accident.
